Smart Grid, Dumb Government 

,----[ Quote ]
| And, of course, those computers controlling 
| the computers will be accessible - and 
| vulnerable - from the Internet. Which means 
| that at some point terrorists will have the 
| perfect way to take down an entire city 
| from the comfort of their own homes on the 
| other side of the world.
| 
| Smart thinking, lads. Not.

NVIDIA Uses Cartoons to Harass Intel

,----[ Quote ]
| The site is especially critical of CEO Paul
| Otellini.  A recent post features a cartoon
| with a cross-eyed Otellini denying using
| "bribery, coercion and kickback relations" to
| try to corner the market.  The site has a
| rather humorous disclaimer informing readers
| that it "is not provided, sponsored or endorsed
| by Intel Corporation."
